        <H1>First Header</H1>
        <P>This is a paragraph in the example HTML file. Keep in mind
        that the title does not appear in the document text, but that

        <P>This is an additional paragraph. Technically, end tags are
        not required for paragraphs, although they are allowed. You can
        include character highlighting in a paragraph. <EM>This sentence
        of the paragraph is emphasized.</EM> Note that the &lt;/P&gt;
        end tag has been omitted.
